What is cervical cerclage?
Cervical cerclage, also known as a cervical stitch, is a treatment for cervical incompetence or insufficiency, when the cervix starts to shorten and open too early during a pregnancy causing either a late miscarriage or preterm birth.
When is it done?
Usually the treatment is done in the second trimester (12-14 weeks) of pregnancy, for a woman who had either one or more late miscarriages in the past. It can be planned prior to pregnancy when it is done abdominally and laparoscopically.
Who needs a cervical circlage?
A doctor might recommend a cerclage be performed if a woman has one or more of the following risk factors:
In women with a prior spontaneous preterm birth and who are pregnant with one baby, and have shortening of the cervical length less than 25 mm, a cerclage prevents a preterm birth and reduces death and illness in the baby.
What are various methods of it?
Types: There are three types of cerclage
Mc Donald’s circlage is essentially a pursestring stitch used to cinch the cervix shut; the cervix stitching involves a band of suture at the upper part of the cervix while the lower part has already started to efface. This cerclage is usually placed between 16 weeks and 18 weeks of pregnancy. The stitch is generally removed around the 37th week of gestation
A Shirodkar cerclage is very similar, but the sutures pass through the walls of the cervix so they're not exposed. The Shirodkar procedure sometimes involves a permanent stitch around the cervix which will not be removed and therefore a Caesarean section will be necessary to delivera an abdominal cerclage, the least common type, is permanent and involves placing a band at the very top and outside of the cervix, inside the abdomen. This is usually only done if the cervix is too short to attempt a standard cerclage, or if a vaginal cerclage has failed or is not possible. A c-section is required for women giving birth with a TAC. A transabdominal cerclage can also be placed pre-pregnancy if a patient has been diagnosed with an incompetent cervix.
What are the preparations made before cerclage?
Before the procedure may be performed, there are a number of preparatory steps that must be taken. A complete medical history will be taken. A cervical exam will be necessary to assess the state of the cervix; usually a transvaginal (through the vagina) ultrasound will be performed. No food or drink will be allowed after midnight before the day of surgery to avoid nausea and vomiting during and after the procedure. The patient will also be instructed to avoid sexual intercourse, tampons, and douches for 24 hours before the procedure. Before the procedure is performed, an intravenous (IV) catheter will be placed in order to administrate fluids and medications.
Lap circlage- how is it done?
The procedure is performed under anesthesia through a laparoscopic ports. The peritoneum overlying the bladder and uterus is divided, and the bladder is pushed caudally. The uterine vessels are identified and displaced laterally, and a suture is then placed around the cervix at the levelof the internal os. The suture is tied posteriorly; this is to allow removal of the suture by posterior colpotomy if necessary. Some surgeons tie the suture anteriorly. The uterine vessels have to be dissected from the cervix to allow insertion of the suture medially. The technique is more demanding than that by the vaginal approach, and might lead to excessive bleeding from the uterine vessels. Transillumination of the uterine vessels and their branches with a laparoscope, and placing the suture through the avascular area of the paracervical tissue medial to the vessels, have been proposed. Most cases of abdominal cerclage have been performed during pregnancy, usually after 10 weeks of gestation. Abdominal cerclage by laparotomy and by laparoscopy have been performed in the pregnant and non-pregnant states. Compaired to open method Lap has faster recovery.
What is aftercare for circlage?

What are the results of circlage?
The success rate for cervical cerclage is approximately 80-90% for elective cerclages, and 40-60% for emergency cerclages. A cerclage is considered successful if labor and delivery is delayed to at least 37 weeks.
What is Rescue cerclage?
In cases with advanced cervical dilatation and bulging membranes, it has been referred to as (heroic cerclage) or rescue cerclage due to its poor success rate Cervical cerclage in advanced cervical dilatation with bulging membranes in the second trimester is controversial. The outcome of these pregnancies is usually poor, but without a cerclage the loss of pregnancy is inevitable. The outcome can be improved if initially a uterine contraction suppressant is used and vaginal infection can be treated. These patients need a lot of counseling and be made aware of the risk of losing the pregnancy. Prolonging pregnancy to reach just viable gestations may also increase overall morbidity. It has been suggested that infection is likely to play a part in many cases of miscarriage in the second trimester and therefore screening for infection before insertion of the suture may predict prognosis. However, in women with bulging membranes, delay in the insertion of the suture is likely to increase the risk of infection, due to the increased exposure of the fetal membranes to vaginal bacteria Reported survival rates following emergency cerclage vary from 12.5% to 63% in women with cervical dilatation of >3cm.

Vaginal discharge is most often a normal and regular occurrence. However, there are certain types of discharge that can indicate an infection. Abnormal discharge may be yellow or green, chunky in consistency, or have a foul odor.
Vaginal discharge serves an important housekeeping function in the female reproductive system. Fluid made by glands inside the vagina and cervix carries away dead cells and bacteria. This keeps the vagina clean and helps prevent infection.
What is Normal?
Women develop PID when certain bacteria, such as chlamydia or gonorrhea, move upward from a woman's vagina or cervix into her reproductive organs. PID is a serious complication of some sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), especially chlamydia and gonorrhea.
Most of the time, vaginal discharge is perfectly normal. The amount can vary, as can odor and hue (its color can range from clear to a milky whitish), depending on the time in your menstrual cycle.
For example, there will be more discharge if you are ovulating, breastfeeding, or are sexually aroused. The smell may be different if you are pregnant or you haven't been diligent about your personal hygiene.
When is It Abnormal
if the color, smell, or consistency seems significantly unusual, especially if it accompanied by vaginal itching or burning, you could be noticing an infection or other condition.
What should I do if I have abnormal vaginal discharge?
Vaginal discharge is perfectly normal but if your discharge looks unusual and you experience other symptoms such as itching and swelling of the vagina, fever, fatigue, pain in the abdomen, unexplained weight loss, or increased urination, you should consult your doctor.
What does a lot of vaginal discharge mean?
Some of the surgeries performed here are:

If you have been diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS),you are probably no stranger to fertility problems. You may have tried to lose weight or take different fertility drugs to help you conceive. But if these PCOS fertility treatments did not work for you, you may wonder if there is another option. Ovarian drilling could be your answer.
Ovarian drilling for PCOS treatment:
Polycystic ovary syndrome can cause your body to produce too much testosterone and insulin, leading to fertility problems. High testosterone levels can cause irregular menstrual cycles, prevent ovulation and hinder pregnancy. PCOS treatments, including ovarian drilling, could help you conceive by regulating your hormone levels and improving your ovulation and menstrual cycles. Laproscopic ovarian drilling may also increase ovarian blood flow, allowing a high delivery of gonadotrophins and post-surgical local growth factors. There is also an improvement of insulin sensitivity after ovarian drilling which helps in ovulation.
Laparoscopic ovarian drilling may improve the effectiveness of other ovulation induction treatments. The oral drug, clomiphene citrate , is the first-line treatment for PCOS, yet, one fifth of women are resistant to the drug and fail to ovulate. In such cases, laproscopic ovarian dirlling may prove to be an effective alternative.
How does ovarian drilling work?
It may sound scary, but “ovarian drilling” is relatively simple and minimally invasive. Ovarian drilling is a laparoscopic procedure performed under general anesthesia. The surgery is typically done on an outpatient basis with minimal recovery time. Here is how ovarian drilling works:
Will ovarian drilling work for me?
If your periods become regular after ovarian drilling, your chances of pregnancy are good. About half of all women that go through with ovarian drilling become pregnant within one year. Even if your cycles do not become more regular after ovarian drilling, you may have better success in getting pregnant with the help of fertility drugs.
Advantages of Laproscopic
Ovarian Drilling:
Ovarian drilling has lower rates of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome and of multi-fetal gestation. The advantages of the procedure also include its singular treatment, as opposed to several trials of ovulation inductions. Other benefits of this technique include cost-effectiveness and that it can be performed as an outpatient procedure.
Talk with your doctor to determine if you are a good candidate for ovarian drilling. By regulating your cycles for several months or more, ovarian drilling may offer you a window of opportunity to become pregnant that you did not have before.

What is Surrogacy?
According to artificial Reproductive Technique guidelines, Surrogacy is an arrangement in which a woman agrees to a pregnancy, achieved through assisted reproductive technology in which neither of the gametes belong to her or her husband with the intention of carrying it to term and handling over the child to the person or persons for whom she is acting as surrogate and surrogate mother is a woman who agrees to have an embryo generated from the sperm of a man who is not her husband and the oocyte of another woman implanted in her to carry the pregnancy to full term and deliver the child to its biological parents.
Who can be a Surrogate Mother?
Has given birth to and be raising that child This is the number one requirement to become a surrogate mother with Surrogate Alternatives as well as all IVF clinics. The reason is that once a woman gives birth, it shows she is able to become pregnant and establishes fertility. The IVF clinic will also require OB records from the surrogate, so the IVF physician can review them to make sure the surrogate had an uneventful and uncomplicated pregnancy. The reason Surrogate Alternatives likes to know you are raising your child, is that it shows stability as not only a mother and but also in life.
Has a Healthy Lifestyle
This is very important to all parties involved. Our surrogate mothers must live a healthy lifestyle to be given the trust to take care of someone else’s child. Intended parents basically want to make sure their surrogate mother is taking care of the pregnancy like they would if it was their own child they were carrying. We all know as mothers, that it’s important to eat healthy and exercise while we are pregnant to avoid possible complications. This also ensures that the baby has a great start to life.
Be Financially Stable
It’s very important to Surrogate Alternatives that our surrogate mothers are financially stable and not collecting government assistance. The reason that this matter’s to us it that we have to make sure they are becoming a surrogate mother for the right reasons and just not solely on the funds they will receive. Women who sign up to become surrogates understand that it takes sacrifice and time to be a surrogate mother. It’s also a great thing to receive the extra funds for your future, whether used to go back to school or save for a down payment on a first home.
Responsible Lifestyle
Surrogate Alternatives feels that the two above requirements fit into this category. We feel a surrogate mother must live a stable lifestyle in order to qualify to become a surrogate mother. This means no drugs of any kind, whether it is street or prescription pills without your OB’s consent. The child is the most important part of the surrogacy process and ensuring the babies health and wellbeing is expected.
Be a Non-Smoker
This is a very important requirement when you sign up to become a surrogate mother. Smoking during pregnancy can cause a stillbirth, premature delivery, and low birth weight. It will also cut the oxygen off to the baby by narrowing blood vessels throughout your body, including the ones in the umbilical cord. So you see why we do not accept smokers into our program.
BMI under 32
IVF clinics have become very strict in regards to the body mass index (BMI) a surrogate mother must be, in order to become a surrogate mother. The reason for this is, if you are over the normal BMI you are at a greater risk of developing diabetes, which can be a risk not only to you but also, to the pregnancy.
No history of mental illness
To be a surrogate mother you have to be able to schedule appointments, remember to attend them and take the proper medication when the time comes. You have to also be able to read and understand the legal contract you will be entering into with the couple you help. Being a surrogate mother requires you to relinquish your rights to the baby once you deliver, as you are only the carrier and not the biological or legal parent. We have to be sure you are stable enough to be able to do that.
Your age is between 21-38
During our 15 years of experience in operating a surrogacy and egg donation agency, we feel that our surrogates need to be at least 21 years of age to be a surrogate; this is also an IVF clinic requirement. We accept surrogate mothers up to the age of 38, since of course it’s the egg donors or intended mothers who provide their eggs, and not the surrogate mother.
The surrogate must agree to psychological & drug screenings
This is one of the standard requirements of our program and the IVF clinic. The IVF clinic not only requires it, but it is important as you are carrying someone else’s child and must make sure you are healthy. The intended parents must put their trust in you, a complete stranger and this only helps them through this emotional process.
IUD’s will have to be removed
If you have an IUD for birth control, you will have to schedule an appointment with your OB or primary care doctor to have it removed. You cannot proceed with an IVF cycle if you have an IUD, as the IVF doctor will need to look at your uterus to make sure there is no scarring or fibroids and he cannot do this with an IUD in place. You cannot have an IUD in you while attempting an embryo transfer.
Tubal ligation is OK
It’s ok if you have had your tubes tied. As a surrogate mother, your eggs will not be used, only your uterus as the carrier.

DIAGNOSTIC LAPAROSCOPY
Diagnostic laparoscopy is a procedure that allows a doctor to look directly at the contents of the abdomen or pelvis. Now a days it has become a safe minimal invasive surgery in diagnosing the pathology.
How the Test is Performed
The procedure is done in the hospital or outpatient surgical center under general anesthesia (while you are asleep and pain-free).
The procedure is performed in the following way:
How to Prepare for the Test
It is a day care procedure where patient is asked to come in the morning with over night fasting. Follow instructions of not eating and drinking before surgery. Do not change or stop taking any medicines without advise from the doctor.
How the Test will Feel
Why the Test is performed
Diagnostic laparoscopy is often done for evaluating female infertility,tubo ovarian pathology,endometriosis,chronic pelvic pain, suspected, adnexal masses,uterine anomalies, PID, suspected ovarian malignancies etc
Normal Results
The laparoscopy is normal if there is no blood in the abdomen, no adhesions, no hernias, no intestinal obstruction, and no cancer in any visible organs. The uterus, fallopian tubes, and ovaries are of normal size, shape, and color.
What Abnormal Results Mean
Abnormal results may be due to a number of different conditions, including:
Risks
As like any other surgeries this procedure too has got the risk of wound infection, perforation of viscera, internal bleeding. However complications for a diagnostic laparoscopy are extremely rare.

What is intra-cytoplasmic sperm injection and how does it work ?
Used with IVF and eggs of good quality, ICSI often is a successful treatment for men with impaired or no sperm. IVF ICSI has revolutionized the treatment of male infertility allowing fertilization to occur even if only a few sperms are available. First developed by reproductive medical specialists in Belgium, ICSI is a specialized form of micro-insemination to help couples overcome male infertility problems. ICSI has become so successful that most treatments previously used for male infertility have been abandoned in its favour.
ICSI is often recommended if:
How does ICSI work?
Difference between IVF and ICSI ?
During routine IVF, eggs and sperm are combined and incubated together in order to achieve fertilization. ICSI is performed by the embryologist, who surgically inserts one sperm into each egg. This is done by perforating the membrane of the egg with a glass pipette, which contains the sperm.
Success rates for ICSI:
What are the advantages of ICSI?

What is Tubal pregnancy?
Tubal pregnancy also called ectopic pregnancy is a complication of pregnancy in which embryo attaches outside the uterus in the fallopian tube.
How is it diagnosed?
Signs and symptoms of tubal pregnancy include abdominal pain, vaginal bleeding, absence of menses. Detection of tubal pregnancy is typically by blood tests for Human Chorionic Gonadotropin(Beta- hCG) and ultrasound. This may require testing more than one occasion. Trans vaginal USG is best to get the clue of tubal pregnancy.
Does it need admission?
Tubal pregnancy can show spectra of presentations depending on which patient needs admission. Patient with ruptured ectopic pregnancy can present with abdominal distention, tenderness, peritonitis and hypovolemic shock & will need immediate admission and surgery to stop the bleeding. Patient who is stable, with unruptured ectopic pregnancy can be monitored and if tubal gestational size < 3.5 cm with absent foetal heart beat, with serum beta hcg < 5000 IU/L , with normal Liver function tests can be treated with injectable methotrexate under supervision on an outpatient basis.
Can it be treated with medicines?
Yes early treatment of ectopic pregnancy in haemodynamically stable patient is a viable alternative to surgical treatment. If tubal pregnancy gestational sac is unruptured, < 3.5 cm in size without heart beat, I/M Methotrexate can be given , dose adjusted according to body surface area of patient under supervision. Beta hCG is serially monitored for its fall for successful treatment of tubal pregnancy. Patient should be compliant for regular follow ups average upto 35 days.
What is surgery for Tubal pregnancy?
If the tube is ruptured or mass> 3.5 cm, then that tube is removed- called Salpingectomy. If the mass is unruptured, then the affected tube is incised and pregnancy only is removed . This procedure is called salpingostomy. The tube is left open without suturing and heals by itself by secondary intent. It can be done laparoscopically.
What are the chances of pregnancy after removing the tube?
Though statis tically removing one fallopian tube reduces chances of conceiving by 50 %, if the woman’s other fallopian tube is healthy & functioning normally, then a woman should be able to get pregnant fairly easily.
What about recurrence of tubal regnancy after it occurred once?
The recurrent ectopic rate is about 10-12 %. The subsequent delivery rate after ectopic is 55%.After 2 or more ectopics and conservative surgery, subsequent delivery rate is about 25%.
If both tubes are removed, How do I get pregnant?
Invitro fertilisation is the way of getting a patient pregnant if she has had tubal pregnancy in past. Ovum and sperm are fused outside the body, embryo is formed and introduced directly into the uterine cavity and fallopian tubes here are not needed for conception. It has very low risk of ectopic.

Gynecological laparoscopy is an alternative to open surgery. It uses a laparoscope to look inside your pelvic area. Open surgery often requires a large incision.
A laparoscope is a slender, lighted telescope. It allows a doctor to see inside your body. Diagnostic laparoscopy can determine whether you have conditions such as endometriosis or fibroids. It can also be a form of treatment. With miniaturized instruments, your doctor can perform a variety of surgeries. These include:
Laparoscopy generally has a shorter healing time than open surgery. It also leaves smaller scars. A gynecologist may perform this procedure.
Reasons for gynecologic laparoscopy
Laparoscopy can be used for diagnosis, treatment, or both. A diagnostic procedure can sometimes turn into treatment.
Some reasons for diagnostic laparoscopy are:
Conditions that might be diagnosed using laparoscopy include:
Some types of laparoscopic treatment include:
Procedure
Laparoscopy is almost always performed under general anesthesia. This means you will be unconscious for the procedure. However, you may still be able to go home the same day.
Once you are asleep, a small tube called a catheter will be inserted. This collects your urine. Then your abdomen will be filled with carbon dioxide gas. This is done with a small needle. The gas keeps the abdominal wall away from your organs. It reduces the risk of injury.
The surgeon will make a small cut in your navel. The laparoscope will be inserted. It transmits images to a screen. This gives your doctor a clear view of your organs.
What happens next depends on the type of procedure. For diagnosis, your doctor might take a look and then be done. If you need surgery, other incisions will be made. Instruments will be inserted through these holes. Then surgery is performed using the laparoscope as a guide.
Once the procedure is over, all instruments are removed. Incisions are closed with stitches. Then you will be bandaged and sent to recovery.

If you’re having heavy menstrual periods and severe cramping, or your doctor needs to know more about your reproductive health, she may recommend you have a hysteroscopy. The procedure can give her an up-close look at your cervix and uterus and help her learn what’s causing problems.
What Is a Hysteroscopy?
Hysteroscopy is the inspection of the uterine cavity by endoscopy with access through the cervix. It allows for the diagnosis of intrauterine pathology and serves as a method for surgical intervention (operative hysteroscopy).
Symptoms
There are no symptoms or physical signs that are specific to adenomyosis. However, the cyclic bleeding of the ectopic endometrium resulting in irritation of surrounding tissue often leads to different nonspecific symptoms, including dysmenorrhea (starting at an early age around the time of menarche in the juvenile forms), abnormal uterine bleeding, chronic pelvic pain, and deep dyspareunia [Altius]. Dysmenorrhea tends to progressively increase and is resistant to therapy with analgesics or cyclic oral contraceptives.
The causative relationship between adenomyosis and subfertility has not been fully confirmed, and the incidence of subfertility in women with adenomyosis has not been defined [Altius].
Diagnosis
Considering the poor specificity of preoperative clinical-based diagnosis, adenomyosis is often an incidental finding in specimens obtained from hysterectomy or uterine biopsies and/or percutaneous ultrasound-based biopsies. The recent evolution of diagnostic imaging techniques, such as transvaginal sonography (TVS), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and hysterosalpingography (HSG), has contributed to improving accuracy in the identification of this pathology, with an increasing number of cases described in adolescents and young adult women with untreatable dysmenorrhea [Altius].
Hysteroscopy is visualization from inside of the uterus with a camera without introducing a scar on the Abdomen
